I need help! alt/batt question.

[Beermakesmehoppy 10+ year member]

Hello! I have an 02 Ford F250 CrewCab ShortBed and Here is my question: I have (2) 1500watt rms amplifiers, 1 1500watt rms power inverter, (2) 10.2" flipdown monitors, a dvd/lcd indash deck, 4 dc outlets, PA system, so basically a lot of power consumption!!! Should I get a high output alt, dual alts, dual batts, or any other option you can think of?

with all that, I would at the very least get a HO alt plus dual batts..... then you may check out the performance and look at adding a second alt if needed. proper wiring will be important as well.

go with a new HO or dual alt, big 3, and upgraded wire and go from there. batteries should be the last upgrade
